Earthquake

 Earthquake 


In the earth's core, a force unseen,

The gods of ruin, ancient and keen.

Beneath the surface, their power lies

Shaking the world with fierce surprise


With trembling might, they rise from deep

Awakening landscapes from their sleep

The ground quakes and trembles in fear

As the vengeful gods draw near.


Their wrath, a tempest, ruthless and grand,

A dance of destruction across the land.

Towers crumble, and mountains rend,

As the gods' fury they fiercely send.


Amidst the chaos, a solemn breath,

For in the quake, we witness death.

Yet amidst the sorrow and the pain,

Resilience blooms, hope will remain.


Through ruins and rubble, screams of pain 

Lost spirits, will never rise again 

The face of the earth is terrible scarred 

Those trapped within, killed or charred 

Their screams die unheard 

The god of death has the final word
